Even if the Alfa Romeo Stelvio has long passed its
'new car' status, its presence at the 2017 New York Auto Show cannot be
ignored.
Developed under the FCA umbrella and benefiting from
Ferrari's know how in performance engines, the Italian crossover will cross
paths with Mercedes-AMG's new GLC63.
And it has the power to do so, as with the
Quadrifoglio badge comes a 2.9-liter twin-turbo V6 engine, which is shared with
the range-topping version of the Giulia. It continues to develop 505 horsepower
and 600 Nm of torque, which translates into a 0-100
km/h sprint in 3.9 seconds, and a top speed of 284 km/h.
If you want something tamer, the base Stelvio model
has you covered. It comes in two flavors - the Stelvio and Stelvio Ti, sporting
a more down-to-earth 2.0-liter turbo'd four-banger with 280 Hp and 415
Nm of torque. All-wheel drive is standard on all versions sold in the USA.
